An engine fire damaged a Honolulu Emergency Services ambulance Wednesday night, KITV reported.
The Honolulu Fire Department was dispatched to Queen’s Medical Center on a report of an ambulance fire around 7 p.m.
Director Jim Ireland told the news station there was no patient in the ambulance at the time and no injuries were reported. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
In 2022, an ambulance fire in the driveway of Adventist Health Castle killed a 91-year-old patient and critically injured a paramedic. A portable oxygen cylinder’s regulatory assembly was found to be the culprit of that fire.
